Journalism Studies delves deeper than simply finding and shaping compelling narratives, it investigates the profession's extensive heritage and its vital societal function.
The BA (Hons) Journalism Studies at Lincoln University seeks to equip students with comprehensive knowledge about journalism's societal impact, along with the critical thinking and hands-on abilities needed for professional success in the field.
This program analyzes the foundational history, theories, and research methodologies that support journalistic work.

The School's research initiatives shape course material, covering topics like human rights coverage, community radio, narrative journalism, WWI-era comics, global journalist communities, and sports reporting. Students can also explore theoretical aspects of journalism through specialized modules.
